12. DMCA Notice

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) provides a process for copyright owners to protect their rights online. If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide The Service with a written notice containing the following information: (i) a physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf; (ii) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed; (iii) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing and where it is located on The Service; (iv) your contact information, including your address, telephone number, and email address; (v) a statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (vi) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Upon receiving a valid DMCA notice, The Service will take appropriate action to remove or disable access to the infringing material. The Service also provides a counter-notice procedure for users who believe that their content has been removed in error. To submit a counter-notice, you must provide a written communication that includes: (i) your physical or electronic signature; (ii) identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed; (iii) a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification; and (iv) your name, address, telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or if your address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which The Service may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original DMCA notice or an agent of such person.

The Service will respond to valid DMCA notices and counter-notices in accordance with the DMCA and applicable law. It is important to note that under the DMCA, both copyright owners and users have specific rights and responsibilities. Copyright owners are entitled to seek remedies for infringement, while users have the right to contest claims of infringement and seek the restoration of their content.
